Venture capital

Venture capital (VC) is money provided to seed early-stage, emerging and emerging growth companies. Venture capital funds invest in companies in exchange for equity in the companies they invest in, which usually have a novel technology or business model in high technology industries, such as biotechnology and IT. The typical venture capital investment occurs after a seed funding round as the first round of institutional capital to fund growth (also referred to as Series A round) in the interest of generating a return through an eventual exit event, such as an IPO or trade sale of the company. Venture capital is a type of private equity.

In addition to angel investing, equity crowdfunding and other seed funding options, venture capital is attractive for new companies with limited operating history that are too small to raise capital in the public markets and have not reached the point where they are able to secure a bank loan or complete a debt offering. In exchange for the high risk that venture capitalists assume by investing in smaller and less mature companies, venture capitalists usually get significant control over company decisions, in addition to a significant portion of the companies' ownership (and consequently value).

Before 1997, the city was part of Quảng Nam-Đà Nẵng Province. On 1 January 1997, Đà Nẵng was separated from Quảng Nam Province to become one of five independent (centrally controlled) municipalities in Vietnam. Đà Nẵng is listed as a first class city, and has a higher urbanization ratio than any of Vietnam's other provinces or centrally governed cities. In terms of urban population, Đà Nẵng is the fifth largest city in Vietnam.

500 Startups

500 Startups is an early-stage venture firm and accelerator founded by Dave McClure and Christine Tsai.

500 Startups is a seed accelerator and related investment fund McClure founded in 2010. The fund admitted a first "class" of twelve startups to its incubator office in Mountain View, California in February, 2011. They expanded to a second class of 21 in June 2011 and a third class of 34 in October 2011.

Could Da Nang be the birthplace of Vietnam’s startup stars?

Could Da Nang be the birthplace of Vietnam’s startup stars?

Could Da Nang be the birthplace of Vietnam’s startup stars?

Credit: CGTN
The host city of this year’s APEC leaders’ meeting, Da Nang in Vietnam, is known for trade and industry. But entrepreneurship is on the rise and American real estate services firm Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) has named it as one of Southeast Asia's top five startup cities.
Could this be the birthplace of Vietnam’s startup stars?
Inside the Da Nang architecture university, the six month-old Songhan Incubator houses 10 startups. Its founder and CEO, Quan Ly Dinh, said they aimed to help create an environment that fosters the entrepreneurial spirit.
“We are supporting startups in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh and Da Nang, to help create an environment that fosters the entrepreneurial spirit. They’re going into agriculture or tourism, areas under economic reform. We have supported a lot of retail and e-commerce, that’s the main playground for young entrepreneurs now,” Quan said.
Quan is not the only man who is bullish on the future of Da Nang. While a lot of foreign investors viewed Vietnam as a very high risk market to invest funds, David Li, managing director at GDBCapital in Da Nang, gave up his finance job in Canada to start ventures in the Vietnamese city.
Larry Nguyen, another businessman who quit his job at Chevrolet, founded Meet Da Nang Tours in the city, a company that offers immersive local travel experiences.
“Right now, we focus on tourism, because millions of guests every year come to Da Nang, the middle of Vietnam. All the startups right now are trying to focus on tourism and students here are really talented. They are willing to [learn] the new things around the world,” Nguyen told CGTN.
For now though, funding is a challenge.
“In terms of funding for startups, it’s very difficult to receive capital from venture capitalists, especially from foreign investors. Once capital comes in and investors generate good returns from their investment, there is more confidence in investing in Vietnam. Then I can foresee that the capital flow trickles to higher risk investments in venture capital,” Li said.
Quan expected the future direction is to “support SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) and venture capital.”
“We have created the legal system for it. In 2018, we will have legislation to support SMEs. Also in early 2018, we will have a law on venture capital,” Quan added.
As part of Vietnam’s “Program to Support Innovative Startup Ecosystem by 2025”, Dang Gia Huy, whose venture Noi Tob designs multi-purpose strollers, gets assistance with workspace, distribution and IPR protection.
“I get support from Da Nang city, especially the technology department. From them, I can get three certificates for technology designs, two certificates for invention and one for trademark. Thanks to the certificates, I can reduce the risk of having my product copied,” Dang said.
While Vietnam’s startup deal values are still small, totaling around 200 million dollars last year based on official data, with the right policy nurturing and funding injection, these young entrepreneurs might just grow their ideas into towering economic pillars of the future.

"Gems and pearls in North Vietnam" by GIA

This GIAFieldExpedition (FE54) took place in June 2014. In this video, you’ll venture into Vietnam’s gem-rich interior and, along with GIA Field Gemologist Vincent Pardieu and his team, climb Luc Yen’s treacherous limestone mountains in search of the region’s gems. You’ll also visit the bustling gem markets of Luc Yen town and skim the waters off Ha Long Bay to visit an akoya pearl farm.
Pardieu points out that the annual expedition to Vietnam isn’t just a good occasion to collect new reference samples and witness mining and trading activity. It also serves to train and evaluate young gemologists hoping to join the Bangkok GIA Field Gemology department.
Luc Yen is a mountainous district located in the north of Vietnam’s Yen Bai province. It’s approximately 155 miles (250 km) northwest of Vietnam’s capital city, Hanoi, about a 4- to 5-hour journey by road.
Its main city, Yen The, is also known as Luc Yen. Once a sleepy provincial area, Luc Yen was the scene of a rich discovery of ruby, sapphire, and spinel in 1987. Yen The is still Vietnam’s premier gem trading district, although the activity is much reduced since the heady days of the 1980s and 1990s.
Luc Yen is an area of rugged beauty—steep, almost conical limestone mountains rise out of lush, fertile plains. This is karst topography, formed when rainfall dissolved soluble rocks like limestone and created underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. These features—combined with the hot climate and abundant vegetation—make it exhausting for the GIA team to reach the mines, where miners recover ruby, sapphire, and spinel from primary and secondary deposits using small-scale artisanal methods...

Then I can foresee that the capital flow trickles to higher risk investments in venture capital,” Li said.
Quan expected the future direction is to “support SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) and venture capital.”
“We have created the legal system for it. In 2018, we will have legislation to support SMEs. Also in early 2018, we will have a law on venture capital,” Quan added.
As part of Vietnam’s “Program to Support Innovative Startup Ecosystem by 2025”, Dang Gia Huy, whose venture Noi Tob designs multi-purpose strollers, gets assistance with workspace, distribution and IPR protection.
“I get support from Da Nang city, especially the technology department. From them, I can get three certificates for technology designs, two certificates for invention and one for trademark. Thanks to the certificates, I can reduce the risk of having my product copied,” Dang said.
While Vietnam’s startup deal values are still small, totaling around 200 million dollars last year based on official data, with the right policy nurturing and funding injection, these young entrepreneurs might just grow their ideas into towering economic pillars of the future.

"Gems and pearls in North Vietnam" by GIA

This GIAFieldExpedition (FE54) took place in June 2014. In this video, you’ll venture into Vietnam’s gem-rich interior and, along with GIA Field Gemologist Vincent Pardieu and his team, climb Luc Yen’s treacherous limestone mountains in search of the region’s gems. You’ll also visit the bustling gem markets of Luc Yen town and skim the waters off Ha Long Bay to visit an akoya pearl farm.
Pardieu points out that the annual expedition to Vietnam isn’t just a good occasion to collect new reference samples and witness mining and trading activity. It also serves to train and evaluate young gemologists hoping to join the Bangkok GIA Field Gemology department.
Luc Yen is a mountainous district located in the north of Vietnam’s Yen Bai province. It’s approximately 155 miles (250 km) northwest of Vietnam’s capital city, Hanoi, about a 4- to 5-hour journey by road.
Its main city, Yen The, is also known as Luc Yen. Once a sleepy provincial area, Luc Yen was the scene of a rich discovery of ruby, sapphire, and spinel in 1987. Yen The is still Vietnam’s premier gem trading district, although the activity is much reduced since the heady days of the 1980s and 1990s.
Luc Yen is an area of rugged beauty—steep, almost conical limestone mountains rise out of lush, fertile plains. This is karst topography, formed when rainfall dissolved soluble rocks like limestone and created underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. These features—combined with the hot climate and abundant vegetation—make it exhausting for the GIA team to reach the mines, where miners recover ruby, sapphire, and spinel from primary and secondary deposits using small-scale artisanal methods...
